Lock your love in Lovelock

Winnemucca, United States

The drive to Winnemucca was pretty, but uneventful. I stopped in Lovelock for some gas and cause it looks like they hired a fancy PR firm to design the town banners. Lock your Love in Lovelock.

I got to Winnemucca a little later than planned what with the deep fried detour and so missed the Basque restaurants. Did you know that Winnemucca is home to the largest contingent of Basques in the US? Well, now you do. Instead, I ended up eating at a Casino and had a Casino Monday night special. NY Strip, Fried Shrimps, mashed potatoes, asparagus, and all you can eat salad and soup bar for $18. Not too shabby, pretty good, and I lost about a buck fifty in the slots. Oh well.

Casino Specials

I look forward to more wiki-ish lessons on obscure towns I've never even heard of! Charming.

Details. The trip is in 'em. And you're soaking in them.

If memory serves, there is a pretty big Basque community in Boise. Yummy Basque food still awaits!
